Ultrafast acoustic strain generation and effects in semiconductor nanostructures

The nature of ultrafast acoustic strain generation and effects in III-V semiconductor-based nanostructures is explored in this thesis via experimental observations that are supported by theoretical analysis. Specifically, coherent phonon generation processes in bulk gallium arsenide (GaAs) are inves...
